AUV MARVEL

Reflecting SEABER’s co-founders, MARVEL gathers boldness, innovation, reliability and efficiency. The MARVEL range is used more for survey and defense-oriented sectors such as security, coast guard, MCM missions and ASW training. MARVEL range has specific features such as the underwater acoustic positioning and communication module. And it has options such as data encryption and scuttling. We’ve united all our know-how to make MARVEL an uniquely reliable tool combining exceptional performances and low maintenance, which is operable in all types of coastal waters. Changing the uses in AUVs A simple glance at the MARVEL is reflecting the disruptive approach of MARVEL micro-AUV. We worked hard to make the AUV technology now accessible to all types of users and be really used as an autonomous patform that you trust underwater release operator to perform other tasks meanwhile. We focus on single task “off-the-self” micro-AUVs affordable and reliable that can be delivered swiftly and deployed just after being received. AUVs robustness is an important point and the first risk for an AUV is water leaks, for instance in the mast area and the fins. To ensure perfect sealing, MARVEL is compartmented in 2 sections. The dry section located in the middle and rear area is never to be opened by the user. This section hosts everything dedicated to navigation, including batteries, actuators, localization sensors and embedded electronics. The wet section located in the front (nose) hosts the payloads (measurement devices) which are accessible to users. The wet section also embeds all necessary connectors, for quick plug-and-play integration of new sensors.
